Buy Cheap Lego Brick

LEGO is a line of construction toys manufactured by the Lego Group, a privately held company based in Billund, Denmark. The company's flagship product, Lego, consists of colorful interlocking plastic bricks and an accompanying array of gears, minifigures and various other parts. Lego bricks can be assembled and connected in many ways, to construct such objects as vehicles, buildings, and even working robots. Anything constructed can then be taken apart again, and the pieces used to make other objects. The toys were originally designed in the 1940s in Europe and have achieved an international appeal, with an extensive subculture that supports Lego movies, games, competitions, and four Lego-themed amusement parks.
The Lego Group began in the workshop of Ole Kirk Christiansen, a carpenter from Billund, Denmark, who began making wooden toys in 1932. In 1934, his company came to be called Lego. It expanded to producing plastic toys in 1940. In 1949, Lego began producing the now famous interlocking bricks, calling them "Automatic Binding Bricks". These bricks were based largely on the design of Kiddicraft Self-Locking Bricks, which were released in the United Kingdom in 1947. Lego modified the design of the Kiddiecraft brick after examining a sample given to it by a British supplier of an injection-moulding machine that Lego had purchased. The first Lego bricks, manufactured from cellulose acetate, were developed in the spirit of traditional wooden blocks that could be stacked upon one another; but these plastic bricks could be locked together. They had several round studs on top, and a hollow rectangular bottom. The blocks snapped together, but not so tightly that they required extraordinary effort to be separated.
The company name Lego was coined by Christiansen from the Danish phrase leg godt, which means "play well". The name could also be interpreted as "I put together" and "I assemble" in Latin, though this would be a somewhat forced application of the general sense "I collect; I gather; I learn"; the word is most used in the derived sense "I read".
The Lego Group's motto is Kun det bedste er godt nok which means "Only the best is good enough". This motto was created by Ole Kirk to encourage his employees never to skimp on quality, a value he believed in strongly. The motto is still used within the company today.

Lego is 50 years old, and the plastic toy building brick is still as popular as it ever was. Lego sells over two hundred playsets a year (with themes ranging from Star Wars to Harry Potter), in hundreds of different countries.
The Lego toy empire began in 1932 when Danish carpenter and joiner Ole Kirk Christiansen, began making wooden toys and selling them from his workshop. Two years later, he named his company Lego - from the Danish words "leg godt" meaning "play well". As a curious coincidence, Lego also means "I put together" in Latin.
Lego was still small at this point, and had only a dozen employees, but its products were becoming more and more popular. In 1947, the company became the first in Denmark to buy a plastic injection-moulding machine, specifically designed to make toys. This lifted Lego above their competition, and set the company apart as an enterprise truly dedicated to the toy business.
By 1951, plastic toys accounted for half of the company's orders, which signalled the subtle shift from the familiar wooden toys to the new and more popular plastic Lego bricks we know today. A revolution in the toy world was upon us.
As the years went on, more and more developments added to the versatility and strength of the LEGO block. In 1967, Lego launched the Duplo brand, a larger version of the familiar block, but for children under five years old. A few years later, Lego moved into the realm of adult modelling, launching classic car replica sets, aimed at a more mature market.
During the next twenty years, Lego launched a range of interactive robotic models, the first of their kind, and also introduced small, moveable mini figures to create a whole new interactive dimension to the product. The consumer could now create their own entire worlds, and accordingly, Lego introduced themed playsets, such as western and pirates. Suddenly, Lego sets were everywhere.
As if to illustrate just how popular Lego was, in June 1968, the first 'Legoland' - a Lego-themed amusement park - was opened in Billund, Denmark. This theme park featured elaborate models of miniature towns built entirely from Lego bricks. The three acre park attracted 625,000 visitors in its first year alone. During the next 20 years, the park grew to more than eight times its original size, and eventually averaged 1.4 million paying visitors per year.
A second 'Legoland' was opened in 1996 in London, and in 1999, a third 'Legoland' was launched, this time in California. Located in Carlsbad, 30 miles north of downtown San Diego
